So far, sounds good.
More lights, the btter. (although 20 sounds good)
Don't use nutrients for the time being... let them grow out.
As for the 18 hour light schedule, sounds 'bout right.

Make sure you don't have light leaks between the veg chamber and the flower chamber. :)

BTW: Don't pull on the stuff!!!!
Don't crack open the seed's shell...
Don't screw with the little leaves...
Don't "help" her.
